Problems with and Windows Update - Error 80070246

[System]

I have a Dell computer that has been relatively trouble free until lately. Just prior to Christmas I started experiencing multiple crashes per day, the majority with the message "Page Fault in Non Paged Area." I have looked at both the .dmp and the checksur.log
file which contained the errors below.


I am not able to check for system updates through Windows updates. I receive the following message:


"Windows could not search for new updates." with code 80070246. I have run both Microsoft Fix-It and the Update Readiness tool. Both indicate that they are resolving problems. The SUR tool even indicated that it was addressing a problem associated with
the code 80070246. Even after both of these activities, I still can't run windows updates. A


Additionally, I cannot run SFC /scannnow as I receive "Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation."


Finally, I stopped automatic updates, deleted the distribution file, and restarted automatic updates. All this did was delete the history. Did not affect the problem.


I have been able to find numerous threads on these issues and have done my best to sort through all of them. Any additional help from a recent knowledgebase that I have missed would be appreciated.
